Cinnamon Life at City of Dreams 

Glitz and glam

A glass hotel that sparkles on Colombo’s skyline

Rising 30 floors, there are almost 700 glitzy rooms in Cinnamon Life, which opened its doors in 2024. It’s an all-singing, all-dancing resort – perfect if you’re looking for a city hotel with bells and whistles, including a kid's club, a wide choice of places to eat and drink, and entertainment and wellness options galore. You’re also well-placed for city explorations – if you can tear yourself away from all the temptations at the hotel, that is…

Why we love Cinnamon Life at City of Dreams

  • You’ll find far more facilities here than at most city hotels, including outdoor pools, a spa, a fantastic kid’s club, and plenty of restaurants, giving it more of a destination resort feel

  • The rooms are sleek and modern, and those on the higher floors offer incredible city or ocean views through floor-to-ceiling windows

  • Although this is a contemporary hotel, the immersive local art experiences it offers will give you a sense of Sri Lankan heritage and traditions

  • There’s a large spa incorporating treatment rooms (including outdoor treatment cabanas), a plunge pool and a yoga pavilion
